lol, I know what my car is capable of and it is pretty much slower than most newer family sedans and minivans.

It is very fun and thrilling though picking on older hondas and trucks though. ;)

V6 Camaro power, booyah!

(When you have to add an intake manifold from a Grand Am to get power, you know you're in trouble.)

Oh, he pulled a Viet Cong? What a pro.

And that's really sad that a Honda Civic, a true commuter car, even kept up with your car for some amount of time...

Wow... drag racing on a public road? Lame on two accounts.

Drag racing: lame

You forgot Lame car

Haha, didn't even think of that.

Why anyone wastes their money modifying a 15 y/o V6 is beyond me. If it was a V8, at least I'd understand, but a V6? The fun of modifying cars for performance isn't completely lost on me, I just don't see the point of doing it on a crappy car.

I have yet to modify my car and when I do modify the engine, I will either keep it at a $300 budget or just not do it.

Also, I bought the car for looks first, performance second. Not many teenagers can say they have a convertible camaro, even though its a V6.

This car does have some pep to it as well. Everyone thinks they need a V8 to have fun but in reality, if "I" had a V8, I would probably be doing 150 down the road rather than 110....

Also, you gotta be proud of the ride you got. Even though the Honda was riced out, it looked pretty damn cool and had some pep to it as well.




Anyway this was the second time I ever went over 90, and it is pretty scary in my car lol.

Yes, for the money I had, it was between that and a half rotted Chevy Deluxe.

The camaro is in great condition and my neighbor let me pay her in payments at about half of what kelly blue book was.

I wouldnt have thought I could have got anything better for $1400.

You remind me of the kid that once phoned me who wanted to pay for the car I was selling in payments, except I was asking $300.00 for the car. I just told him "If you can't afford $300.00 for a car you can't afford to have a car." and hung up.

Except she was hurting for cash and offered it to me so she could get rid of the car. I had $1000 cash in my pocket that day, tolder her I would pay the rest within 3 weeks which I did.


Anyway, this topic kind of got off topic and therefore, I would like to kindly ask a moderator to close this topic.

Thank You
